Reporting a bug

What is your Test Scenario?

I'd like to test at resolutions of devices such as the Pixel series and newer iPhones.

What is the Current behavior?

http://viewportsizes.com only has devices up through 2014's iPhone 6.

What is the Expected behavior?

...more new than that?

How would you reproduce the current behavior (if this is a bug)?

Thank you for your inquiry. I agree that the device list from http://viewportsizes.com is outdated and incomplete. The website owner doesn't support it anymore. It means that we need to find a different database that can be used as a source of device metrics. Do you have any suggestions on websites or APIs that can provide such information?

[JoshuaKGoldberg]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_high-definition_smartphone_displays is pretty complete, if that helps. I just Googled around till I found it 😉.

I see that the http://viewportsizes.com/ is gone already! so it might be a good idea to update the docs?

this library is outdated, but it might help as base https://www.npmjs.com/package/viewport-list

hope that helps :)

Thank you for drawing our attention to this. Seems like the time to change the source of device resolutions has definitely come. I'll add this issue to the Planned milestone.

FWIW, this exists in https://github.com/DevExpress/testcafe-browser-tools/blob/master/data/devices.json.
